Date: June 10, 2007 09:26PM haha...i have done that at least twice...
i used to quite dislike parsley, so i kicked myself. and then laughed. both times! i do eat it sometimes but rarely buy it - it is fantastic in tabbouleh though a traditional ingredient you can make this salad with food processed-cauliflower in place of the traditional grain or you could sprout some quinoa or you could just chop up the veggies, no bulgar - i would finely chop some nice tomatoes, cucumber, (spring/green)onions if you like, maybe some celery or something too. finely chop all the parsley too and some coriander/cilantro if you fancy it and a bit of mint. then squeeze lots of lemon over, add good olive oil and salt if you use it. could also add spices like cumin. add sprouts if you like too (chickpeas/garbanzo?) sounds pretty tasty! i'd serve it with romaine leaves and perhaps a drizzle of tahini orr...search for raw tabbouleh! i found this too **Parsley Soup 1 bunch parsley 5 medium tomatoes 3 stalks celery juice of 3 lemons 1 tablespoon of honey (?) 1/2 cup of ground nuts 2 or 3 chinese water chestnuts 1 teaspoon marjoram 1/2 teaspoon thyme The recipes says to blend in a blender the parsley, tomatoes and celery and then strain them. I have done it that way but found it easier to just extract their juices in a juicer. Then add lemon juice, honey, ground nuts, herbs and peeled, chopped water chestnuts. Stir well and serve. Hot pepper may be added if preferred. This soup is tangy and delicious. Even my cook-food-eating parents loved it!** Re: thought I got cilantro but...

every once and awhile i'll get things like parsley and broccoli sprouts and eat them out of hand with my other lettuce or celery or whatnot...just for variation kicks. Re: thought I got cilantro but...

Date: June 16, 2007 09:26AM Parsley is used extensively in Italian cuisine. i have read of people making raw pesto sauce and that it tasted fantastic. I think www.gliving.tv has a recepi for that. Re: thought I got cilantro but...
